Abstract: In order to so construct a high-pressure cleaning apparatus with a motor pump unit, in which a high-pressure pump is arranged so as to adjoin a motor in the direction of the motor shaft of the motor, and with a hose drum for a high-pressure hose which connects the pressure outlet of the high-pressure pump to a liquid dispensing device, that a favorable arrangement of the hose drum is possible with a particularly simple structure, it is proposed that the axis of rotation of the hose drum extend transversely to the direction of the motor shaft and be arranged in the area of the high-pressure pump, and that the hose drum be arranged at the side of and next to the motor pump unit.

Abstract: A sliver can transporting apparatus and method for circulating sliver cans between a draw frame and a sliver supply station includes an inner track component and an outer track component. The outer track component transports empty sliver cans from the draw frame to a sliver supply station and the inner track component transports full sliver cans from the sliver supply station to form a row of full sliver cans at a final can ready position. Longitudinal bar members are selectively operated to transfer the full sliver cans in groupwise manner from the inner track components to the outer track component to allow another row of full cans to be supplied to the final can ready position and to transfer the rows of full sliver cans to the double rows of the draw frame. In correspondence with the transfer of the full sliver cans to the draw frame, empty sliver cans are discharged from the draw frame to be transported along the outer track component to a sliver supply station for refilling.
